  • Chapter Six Epilogue
    CHAPTER SIX EPILOGUE 230 Shivaji fought Mughals in the north and Bijapuri Sultans in the south and carved out an independent kingdom of his own out of his small Jagir of Poona. He had rare gifted qualities of winning the heart of common people, who became the basis of his Swarajya i.e., kingdom. He was a great military genius and a diplomat and above all a man of creative ability. He coronated himself on the 6th June, 1674 and declared to the world that he became independent sovereign ruler. He also declared to the world that he was no longer a jahagirdar but an independent sovereign ruler. Shivaji also founded his own administrative institutions such as Ashta Pradhan Mandal'*', a new system of military and civil administration etc. This system was based on regular payment to the officers and soldiers. They were also not hereditary. They continued in their respective position as long as they carried on their duties well. He discontinued the practice of giving lands, jagirs, saranjams to the officers including his ministers. His ministers were advisers, and remained in their offices as long as they enjoyed his confidence. The function of Shivaji*s council was merely advisory. All decision-making authority finally rested in him. Chhatrapati represented sovereign power both in theory and practice. Thus in Shivaji's time Chhatrapati was the fountain of final authority and of all sources of power. After the death of Chhatrapati Shivaji on 5th April 1680, 231 Shivaji's elder son Sambhaji became Chhatrapati in the circumstances of stresses and strains.

  • Pradhan Ancestor [Tue, 24 Nov 2015]
    Articles Pradhan 2 | Next | Section Menu | Main Menu | Pradhan From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search Pradhan (Devanagari: धान) is a ministerial title used in regions of Hindu cultural tradition that equates to the more popular term Vizier in rank and function.[1][2] The Sanskrit pradhan translates to "major" or "prime";[3] however, the more modern Hindi definitions provided by the Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary also include "chief" and "leader".[4] The precise interpretation can differ significantly by region. The style was abandoned by many Indian princely states during the Mughal era in favor of Persian styles such as Wasir and Diwan. Pradhan is also commonly employed as a high-caste surname in the Newāh/Newār (Newar: नेवा) community of Nepal and is also currently used by the Kshatriya and Kayastha people of northern and western India. It is a surname used by Khandayat and Bhanayat (or Kshatriya) castes of eastern Indian state of Orissa. "Khanda" means sword and "Ayata" means control, hence "Khandayat" means "the master of sword" and same as Bhanayat which means the worshiper and having a control of Bow and Arrow, a powerful and most honored warrior castes. Examples[edit] Pradhan Mantri: Prime Minister (Mantri is the root of Mandarin). Pradhan Senadhipati: Chief of Staff ("Senadhipati" is an old Sanskrit style for a military leader, also used in Nepal for Commander-in-Chief). Pradhan Senapati: Grand General (also translated as Chief of 3 Staff). Pradhan was the title of a Minister who sat on the Council of 8 (Ashta Pradhan) in the early Maratha Empire prior to Peshwa administration.

They can work together, and the entire build process should be transparent, and it should enable and support development and operations. This transformation depends on: significant changes in culture; roles and responsibilities; team structure; tools and processes. With the uncertainty over the complete lifting of the lockdown, at UNICOM, we have devised a virtual event of the previously published conference and have spread out the programme over two days of around four hours each day. Please see the detailed programme. Call for Participation We are inviting speakers – thought leaders, subject experts and start up entrepreneurs – to share their knowledge and enthusiasm about their work and their vision in the field of Agile, Testing and DevOps. We have listed some relevant topics in the “Background” section. These are suggestions only. Please suggest a topic that suits the day and your work. We understand that successful projects are written up as “White Papers”. Please share these with us.
